<span>5 - 1/2 x = 5/8 x + 2
-1/2 x - 5/8 x = 2 - 5
-4/8 x - 5/8 x = -3
-9/8 x = -3
       x = (-3)(-8/9)
       x = 8/3
       x = 2 2/3</span>

a swimming pool is 30 feet long 20 feet wide and 6 feet deep .There are 7.5 gallons of water in 1 cubic foot.How many gallons wi
Virty [35]
In this problem it is asking how many gallons the pool holds. It gives you a method of exchange from cubic feet to this however, so in order to solve for this, we first have to solve for how many cubic feet is in the swimming pool, or how much volume the swimming pool has. The formula for the volume of a rectangle is Length*Width*Depth=Volume. Plugging in what we have we get 30*20*6=Volume, or Volume = 3600. As there are 7.5 gallons of water in each cubic foot, we simply multiply 7.5 times 3600 to get the answer. This is 27000.

In the figure below, points M, P, H, J, and K lie in plane Z.
marishachu [46]

Answers:

  • (a) LN
  • (b) PHJ
  • (c) K
  • (d) HK

===================================================

Explanation:

Part (a)

Lines LN and PN have the point N in common. This is the intersection point.

-----------------

Part (b)

To name a plane, pick any three non-collinear points that are inside it. We cannot pick points H, J, K together because infinitely many planes pass through it. Imagine the piece of flat paper able to rotate around this axis (like a propeller). Having the points not all on the same line guarantees we form exactly one unique plane.

I'll pick the non-collinear points P, H and J to get the name Plane PHJ. Other answers are possible.

------------------

Part (c)

Points H, J and K are collinear as they are on the same line. Pick either H or K to fill out the answer box. I'll go with point K

------------------

Part (d)

Point P and line HK are coplanar. They exist in the same flat plane, or on the same sheet of flat paper together.

We can think of that flat plane as the ground level while something like point N is underground somewhere. So point N and anything on that ground plane wouldn't be coplanar.

Note: there are other possible names for line HK such as line JH or line JK. The order doesn't matter when it comes to naming lines.

Honestly, I'm trying my best to solve this but my Math XL is being so rude. ​
Valentin [98]
<h3>Answer:  19</h3>

==============================================================

Explanation:

T is the midpoint of PQ, which means T splits PQ into two equal parts. Those parts being PT and TQ.

Set them equal to each other and solve for x.

PT = TQ

3x+7 = 7x-9

3x-7x = -9-7

-4x = -16

x = -16/(-4)

x = 4

So,

PT = 3x+7 = 3*4+7 = 19

TQ = 7x-9 = 7*4-9 = 19

Both PT and TQ are 19 units long to help confirm the answer.
